She's got plenty of company in the money trouble department. Most of America is BROKE and/or unemployed. These are terrible economic times and nobody is safe. Thanks to Bush and Cheney we won't dig out of this hole for decades.

It's not Bush and Cheney's fault the dumb ass can't balance a check book! She wanted a lifestyle she couldn't afford like a lot of dumb Americans. I'll try to step over her when i am walking down the street but i make no promises. Oprah lectured her a few years ago about her behavior and she didn't listen. She got what she deserved.

Sounds like she has a major entitlement problem. I am totally blow away at how you can declare BK 12 years ago (when she was only 31) and here she is AGAIN. What about 12 years from now when she is 55? Grow up, Toni!

I guess she thinks that she doesn't have to keep track of the money, It's all hers ! Move over Wesley Snipes.

God, what a bunch of fools post here. First of all it's not the taxpayers who pay for a Chapter 7. Secondly, her shopping habits are not your friggin' business nor is anything else she does with her life just because TMZ chose this as a story. You are all judgmental freaks. At no time did I attribute Toni's BK to Bush and Cheney-reread it, stupid. What I did attribute to them was the complete and epic destruction of the US economy. That's all theirs and we won't get out of this pit in my lifetime, or possibly YOURS EITHER.

The country is falling apart because celebs have lost their classiness, magnetism and ability to sell the dream to the masses. You need stylish, rich people & mega stars to more effectively ‘sex-up’ a lifestyle that keeps Joe blow laboring to achieve his fantasy on a smaller scale. You turn on TV today and what do ya got? Pitbulls paired up with midgets, I don’t even know what I’m buying, but it doesn’t feel sexy. We need early 80’s glam back, more classic, blonde bombshells who are into dating rich elderly men as opposed to baggy pant thugs, and to re-inflate the real estate bubble, and easy credit.

(They're calling me the new Ronald Reagan John.)

Seriously this is not the first time this has happened to Toni I have no sympathy for her what so ever, If majority of people on this planet had a fraction of what her wealth was think how they could improve there lifes and she wastes it 3 times over, she should be ashamed of herself she obviously has no concept of money and its worth.

Ah...she has the voice of an angel but the spending habits of a devil. This devil is very irresponsible and is clueless on how to handle money. She should never have been given such a gift. I hope she is made accountable for every penny she owes, "Unbreak my heart " indeed.
